People think (that) robots will do most of our work.
Many people believe (that) we will live on the planet Mars by the year 2100.
Many people are sure (that) they will have more time for their hobbies.
Then tell the students to find out the rules with the hint: From the sentences, we know (that) an object clause can be put after some _______, such as ‘think’, ‘believe’, ‘know’, or after some ___________, such as ‘sure’, ‘certain’.
2) Ask the students to change one sentence into the negative one, and give them two items and make the students choose the better one.
Many people believe (that) we will live on the planet Mars by the year 2100.(改为否定句)
Many people don’t believe (that) we will live on the planet Mars by the year 2100.
Many people believe (that) we will not live on the planet Mars by the year 2100.
And then tell the students we always put ‘not’ before ‘think’ and ‘believe’.
Step 4 Practice 1
Ask the students to find out whether it is an object clause or not.

Many people are sure that some plants can produce enough water on mars, aren’t they?
Then show the students object clauses to introduce a ‘yes/no’ question.

Grammar 1
Step 1. Lead-in
Ask the students a question “Could you tell us something about the life on Mars?” Tell the students to show us the life on Mars in different ways, such as, transport, food and water, what to wear, how to work, how to study, etc.
Step 2. Presentation
1) Ask the students what they should say in the following situations.
This morning ×××was late. If he wanted to come into the classroom, he should say, “________________”
If I want to borrow a dictionary from a student, I should say, “_______________________________________”.
Now If a student wants to borrow a book from me, what should he/she say?
2) Ask the students to find out the difference between the two sentences.
Could I use your dictionary?
Can I use your dictionary?
From the words above, the students can know that we can use ‘can’, ‘could’, ‘may’, ‘might’ to talk about permission, and these four words have different degrees of formality.
